PVH-8, the system god forgot

I've recently noticed that the subcap pvp system is rather unpopulated, and that a lot of players that want to do subcap pvp aren't aware of it's existance. Those that are don't seem to use it as there is no others there to fight and thus there will not be any system for the people who want to stick to subcap pvp instead of constantly being blapped at 240km by dreads or have a subcap battle end up with triage archons on field.

However I've also thought of a solution and others have agreed with me in the local chat. If you were to set PVH-8 as the system the moveme chat takes you to people would figure out that it existed and the capital pilots would have to go to a different system. Of course this means that people could use the moveme chat to get in to PVH-8 with capitals, but I'm confident there are ways to prevent it.

or people could use the test server to test the game for bugs and not as a live EFT?

Yea, let's remove the combat systems and see the server go almost completely empty, or we can keep them and use them to test fits and ships along with new features and modules. The combat system isn't entirely used as a EFT which is easily proved by me not having any use of it if it was, I'm a highsec carebear and I could go test missioning fits in any system.

Your post here suggests that pvp would never contain bugs and that everyone in the combat system is testing fits, and I'm sorry but I can't agree. People use it to have fun, try new ships with the sp from masstests and yes, test fits. If you don't use them then there's no need commenting about them not being optimally set up.

keep in mind that also many ppl use SISI to actually test the next expansion / patch.

this include all eve activity.

and regarding pvp, while being part of some corp / alliance, you can test it "at home" with a few corpmate, wich saves you the trouble of going back and forth to the PVP test system (even if it is instant transfer, you already have your fittings etc.. at home)

i did test a lot of pvp related things on SISI, but i almost never go to this area (only during mass test in fact) because test are performed "internally", in our home area

-OP mentioned PVH-8 is under populated, forgotten, abandoned and unheard of... This is true, not many ppl know about it because not many people actually do any research in regards to the rules of sisi or its actual purpose and function. There are people to this day reciting rules that are no longer valid and have been out dated nearly four years ago.

-People just need to be reminded to go to the test forums and do some research.

-The purpose of sisi is to test game mechanics

-I have yet to go to a Mass Test that was meant to test ship fits, not saying it hasn't happened but I doubt it.

Sorry, I can rant and ramble about the retardedness that is Sisi and its inhabitants...

Bare faced lie. There never was a wall of text. I looked on EVEsearch.
